Then I told the exiles all the things that the Lord had shown me.
Then He said to me, “Son of man, go to the house of Israel and speak with My words to them.
But you shall speak My words to them whether they listen or not, for they are rebellious.
“Son of man, I have appointed you a watchman to the house of Israel; whenever you hear a word from My mouth, warn them from Me.
But when I speak to you, I will open your mouth and you will say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God.’ He who hears, let him hear; and he who refuses, let him refuse; for they are a rebellious house.
